While I was in Jakarta I visited this little gelato bar that was really hype at that moment. I don't know about it now. But their ratings everywhere is pretty good. 4.4 on google review and the same goes for zomato. This not-so-hidden gem is located in Pantai Indah Kapuk (PIK).

Being a huge gelato fan, I told myself that I have to try this one. So glad to finally made it. My first impression when I entered the store was simple and not to spacey. The decorations and mural are just where they are suppose to be. It was pretty cool inside the store for an endless summer and Jakarta's tropical weather.

There was a large group which looks like a bunch of high schoolers having a meeting or something. I'm pretty sure there were at least 10 of them. So I guess Latteria is a pretty okay place to have a meeting of even just gather around and chill.

But honestly I was quite surprised when I read their menu on the blackboard. I find their flavors selection rather unique and unusual. Their names were unique but not all explained their flavors, but luckily the have a brief description below their names. Hope you can read them in my little pictures.

Some of the flavors were a mixture of tea flavors. My favourite was Perfect match. I got their last scoop available and if I'm not mistaken it's a mixture of chamomile gelato and cherry drizzle. Chamomile is my favourite tea before I go to sleep and what's better than having a gelato version of it! haha. The taste was refreshing a bit sour and not to sweet, just perfect! I also tried other flavors and my second favorite would have to go to Crack' em, one of their all time best seller. It has Hokkaido milk gelato as it's base, mixed with caramel salt cookies. So smooth and milky, love it!

A fun fact is they change flavors every 2 weeks. If I'm not mistaken they had a total of more that one hundred of flavors, that's why they are always changing. Sorry if I'm wrong tho! It has been more that 2 months so my memory is a bit rusty, haha.

Nevertheless giving them another visit after 2 weeks time should keep you off getting bored. The staffs are really friendly and let you try a lot of flavors if you ask nicely and they provide free WiFi too!

The price starts from 38K for a small cup with a mix of 2 flavors. 50K for medium cup with 3 flavors and 63 K for large cup with 4 flavors. You can take away as well. Pretty good for a premium artisan gelato and definitely cheaper than international brands that we normally consume.

Overall, I love the place, the vibe and the gelato. This place is definitely worth to try! I might comeback if I ever visit Jakarta again.

That's all for now, thank you for stopping by and I hope you find my post useful!
